Be among the first in the world to see the video game debut from Curt Schilling's 38 Studios.

A. Salvatore (Forgotten Realms), lead designer Ken Rolston (Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion), and founder and chairman Curt Schilling. Learn all about this ambitious new project as 38 Studios unveils the name of the game along with the world premiere of the game's first trailer directed by McFarlane. Attendees will also receive a limited-edition poster.

Hopefully we'll have a man in the stands for this one. I'm not going this year, as last year's visit to Comic-Con blew my convention budget for the next decade.
